Las Vegas Convention Center District Phase Two - Expansion RFQ # 4478

Dear Members of the Selection Committee: Thank you for the opportunity to present our qualifications and proposed team members for the expansion of the Las Vegas Convention Center. Our team understands the effort and commitment it takes to expand the convention center, and we would be honored to enter into an engagement with you to bring this vision to reality. We are excited about the opportunity to provide the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA) with a convention center that is functional, cost-effective, on time and on budget. The Fentress Architects | EV&A | PGAL team offers extensive public and civic experience, the proven ability to deliver convention center expansion projects, and unparalleled knowledge of Las Vegas.

Fentress Architects brings a tried and tested team with an exceptional history of working together on convention center projects. Michael Winters, Project Designer, and John Kudrycki, Project Manager, have worked together in their respective roles on all of our convention center projects over the past 25 years. Our designers have years of experience dealing with the complex problems associated with reconfiguring existing centers without disrupting operations. We fully understand the unique problems presented and are the best in the industry at solving them with out-of-the box solutions and valueadded revenue-producing ideas. Fentress’ first convention center design was hailed by former Chrysler Corporation Chairman Lee Iacocca as a facility that “blew my mind. Our people say it’s the best they’ve ever been in.” He was speaking in – and about – the Colorado Convention Center, Phase I. As Principal in Charge, Ed Vance has been providing architectural services for convention centers and exhibit halls for over 17 years. Michael Winters, Project Designer, has toured more than 50 best-in-class convention centers across North America. We have met with operational personnel, studied current design trends, and synthesized a massive collection of data and ideas. Working closely with user groups and meeting planners, Fentress Architects has used that intellectual property to design convention centers that lead industry trends.

Ed Vance & Associates (EV&A) is guided by a design philosophy that emphasizes respect for excellence, cooperative client relations, and enhancing the human environment. The firm’s team has helped shape the physical expression of the local desert community. EV&A takes pride in developing long lasting and meaningful relationships with their clients as evidenced by the work they have done for the World Market Center Buildings A, B, C, and D. EV&A offers an unparalleled breadth of services that brings holistic solutions to even the most elusive design challenges.

For the past 15 years, PGAL, LLC has been providing architectural services by managing and leading design teams for large, complex projects on schedule and on budget. PGAL’s most recent experience includes the Terminal 3 buildings at McCarran International Airport. Their Las Vegas-based team offers unparalleled commitment, a thorough knowledge of Clark County building and zoning codes, and strong local resources.

The creation of inspirational architecture has been Fentress Architects’ mission for more than three decades. Lured to the majestic Rocky Mountains by the natural beauty and the region’s wealth of opportunity, Curtis Fentress, FAIA, RIBA, founded Fentress Architects in 1980 to create humanistic architecture that respects and honors its context.

Early on, clearly established goals and a pioneering spirit attracted a team of talented and dedicated architects to what has now become one of the largest and most renowned firms in the region.

The studio has designed 134.7 million square feet of public space that welcomes over 450 million visitors a year. Our award-winning portfolio includes convention centers, aviation projects, museums and government centers throughout the U.S., Asia and the Middle East.

Fentress Architects has consistently focused on public architecture, applying the firm’s design expertise and resources to elevate the human experience in public buildings.

Miami Beach Convention Center

Fentress Architects’ qualifications are demonstrated by our work, which includes buildings unique to their location that create memorable images. Rather than approaching architecture with a signature style, our designs embody a thorough appreciation for each project’s culture and context. As a result, our body of work includes projects appropriate for their communities. It is architecture designed to stand the test of time.

Fentress Architects’ goal for each convention center is to collaborate with the client to create a landmark-quality building that is ambitious in design and practical in use. In the past several years, our design staff has toured over 50 convention centers across the country. We have met with operational personnel, studied current design and operation trends, and assembled a massive collection of data and ideas on cutting edge design and operation. In addition, we have consulted with user groups and planners annually to determine the most current needs and trends in the industry.

Each of our convention center designs become a landmark-quality building that is economical and provides a long-term commitment to the community. These facilities are not only functional and user-friendly but are also designed to be durable, with timeless appeal. We are known for buildings that are as cost-efficient and sustainable as they are ambitious in their design.

We take pride in being collaborative and creative problem-solvers with the ability to take even the most difficult urban site and strict regulations and make a convention center part of the fabric of the community. After all, meeting planners choose convention centers that provide smooth operations and they also look for cities in which visitors can enjoy new experiences mere steps from the meeting facility. Fentress Architects’ award-winning designs for the Santa Fe Convention Center and the Pasadena Convention Center created two of the greenest centers in the country, earning LEED Gold Certification from the U.S. Green Building Council. Our firm’s pioneering commitment to sustainable design has been acknowledged since the early 1990s with awards for sustainable practices and innovative solutions to environmental challenges.

Colorado Convention Center Phase I and II Denver, Colorado In 1987, Fentress Architects completed a master plan for the Colorado Convention Center. In 1990, Phase I of the project was designed for one million square feet. Several years later the City of Denver passed an initiative to expand and renovate the convention center. Fentress Architects was asked to create a civic landmark for Denver that conveyed a strong Colorado sense of place.

The contribution of the center to the City of Denver has been significant in its revival of the Silver Triangle district, its inclusion of light rail on the south side of downtown, and the impact it has had on revenue for the city. The expansion and renovaton created a new holistic interior and exterior which took the 15-year-old center and expansion into one new civic image for downtown Denver.

As part of the Phase II design, Fentress developed an additional master plan that envisioned a Phase III expansion on the roof of the convention center.

This master plan allowed for a future expansion without the need to purchase additional land.

Whether entering through 14th Street or Speer Boulevard, the experience is uplifting. Rising to 100 feet, the 40,000-square-foot lobbies are bathed in natural light illuminating art pieces, circular light fixtures, and a host of other humanizing elements. These features give patrons a moment of repose to orient themselves before proceeding down the Grand Concourse or up escalators to the exhibit hall. An 800-foot-long glass front door invites visitors to enjoy unobstructed views of the Rocky Mountains and downtown Denver. At the building’s west entrance, adjacent to the exhibit hall, a 7,500-square-foot outdoor terrace also offers extraordinary mountain views. An eclectic collection of art animates spaces throughout the center, including an enormous blue bear playfully peering into the lobby from outdoors.

The exhibit level offers 585,000 square feet of contiguous exhibition space that can be divided into six individual halls varying in size from 90,000 to 106,000 square feet. Similarly, a 50,000-square-foot ballroom, a 35,000-square-foot ballroom, and 100,000 square feet of meeting space can each be configured in multiple configurations.

The designers’ resolution of formal, functional and technical requirements for this center dramatically increased bookings and revenue which resulted in its elevation to Tier One status within the industry. The Colorado Convention Center is ranked within the top three centers in the country.

“One of the things that I think was most important was that Fentress made the interior as beautiful as the exterior. It is very well lit, lots of public space, a lot of light brought into the building. ... And of course, when you are in Colorado you want to show off those blue skies.�

- Richard Scharf, President and CEO of Visit Denver

Designed to meet each convention’s needs, the center’s 62 meeting rooms can be joined in a myriad of different configurations. Even the center’s two ballrooms can be converted to be used as meeting spaces for as many as 18 meeting rooms. All meeting space is equipped with individual, state-of-the-art audio visual, acoustical and electrical systems.

Miami Beach Convention Center Expansion/Renovation Miami Beach, Forida Fentress Architects was selected to design the Miami Beach Convention Center Expansion and Renovation from a field of eight national design firms. The scope for the 1,435,000-square-foot convention center includes the expansion and renovation of the center to provide upgraded show needs and increase the potential for the city to market the center on an international basis. The center is already home to world-renowned events such as Art Basel and the Miami International Boat Show.

The project includes a new 60,000-square-foot ballroom and 127,000 square feet of new meeting spaces. The project will transform over six acres of parking into space for a public park with landscape and infrastructure improvements, including a tropical garden, game lawn, shaded areas, veterans plaza, pavilion, and water feature. The project will result in 500,000 square feet of exhibit hall space with increased power and improved IT connectivity capacities, increased ballroom and meeting areas, and renovated back-of-house spaces.

The renovation concepts are inspired by sleek modern designs that incorporate natural elements of the ocean, beach, and underwater life. Waves, manta rays, and coral reefs were studied as part of the design process. The exterior building envelope is designed with linear panels that create a curvilinear undulation inspired by ocean waves. The facade has hurricane resistant connections that can resist large storms. It is also built for the future utilizing steel construction

with composite metal decks for raised floors in the case of rising sea levels. The smooth interior design finishes emulate receding water, sea foam, and patterns relating to varying types of local coral reef.

In addition making Miami Beach Convention Center the most technologicallyadvanced center in the U.S., the renovation will provide captivating outdoor event spaces and rooftop pavilion opportunities for convention delegates. This project involves complicated renovations and replacements of virtually all the building’s electrical and mechanical operating systems. The project has targeted LEED Certified Silver. The building systems will be extensively upgraded to earn the sustainability certification. State-of-the-art low voltage electronic systems are part of the power saving tools that are being employed.

Fentress Architects developed extensive phasing options and diagrams to keep the center open and operational during extensive renovations and additions of new spaces.

San Diego Convention Center Expansion San Diego, California Fentress Architects was selected for the Phase 3 expansion of the San Diego Convention Center. The plan adds 250,000 square feet of contiguous exhibit hall space, approximately 101,500 square feet of meeting room space, and a new 80,000-square-foot ballroom to the existing facility.

Fentress’ design will provide significant savings to the San Diego Convention Center Corporation in construction and operating costs. It reduces the building mass and volume of a prior conceptual design by approximately 38 percent while meeting all of the program requirements. When completed, San Diego’s bayside convention center will have more than 750,000 square feet of contiguous exhibit hall space, making it larger than any other on the West Coast, moving San Diego ahead of competitors in Los Angeles, Anaheim, San Francisco, Seattle, and Vancouver, British Columbia. The 80,000-square-foot ballroom will be the largest ballroom in a convention facility on the West Coast.

Listening to San Diegans’ desire for more green space, the design creates 5 acres of waterfront public space. Adjacent to the South Embarcadero, the park will create a stunning civic destination for residents, as well as visitors who come to events at the convention center each year. With 360-degree views of downtown, Coronado, and the San Diego Bay, the public space will be ideal for picnics, music festivals, public art, and special events. Plans include a waterfront promenade on the ground floor, complete with 30,000 square feet of retail shops, pedestrian walkways, and a waterfront transportation center.

“Fentress’ design pays honor to the current architecture while being a win for all of San Diego. It will boost our economy by creating new jobs, build on tourism – our third-largest industry – and ensure San Diego remains at the top of the convention industry by delivering more exhibit and meeting space. This is a huge win for communities throughout our region.”

- Bob Nelson Chair of the SDCCC Board of Directors

The Phase 3 expansion will be built using the United States Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, or LEED standards. A preliminary, internal LEED scorecard by the Fentress team indicates that a LEED Gold ranking is possible. Sustainable elements such as energy-efficient lighting, integration of photovoltaic solar panels, storm water retention and water filtration, wind energy, a green roof, recycling and composting have all been envisioned for the proposed design.

Georgia World Congress Center Expansion/Renovation Atlanta, Georgia The Georgia World Congresss Center seeks to compete in the market of convention centers that have over one million square feet of contiguous exhibit space. To accomplish this, they plan to add a 100,000-square-foot exhibit hall between the existing B and C Exhibit Halls that currently exist. This “contiguous exhibit space” will put the total square footage of the B Halls, the C Hall, and new BC hall at 1.1 million square feet of contiguous exhibit space.

In addition to the new BC hall, a number of meeting rooms are being added and new lobbies to join the B and C lobbies are being proposed. The new BC hall is being added in what is now the loading dock area, resulting in the renovation and reconfiguration of new docks and back-of-house support spaces.

Another element of the program is the addition of a headquarters hotel in the footprint of the soon-to-be-demolished Georgia Dome. Fentress is collaborating with the hotel architect to devise a shared dock area that is mutually beneficial.

Expansion Components: • 100,000 s.f. Exhibit Hall Expansion/Renovation • 90,000 s.f. Rooftop Terrace • 48,000 s.f. New Meeting Space • 20,000 s.f. New BC Lobby • 95,000 s.f. of Loading Dock and Back-of-House Reconfiguration

Pasadena Convention Center Expansion/Renovation Pasadena, California Fentress Architects designed the 185,000-square-foot convention center expansion to create a civic landmark in Pasadena. The addition is designed to complement Pasadena’s historic civic auditorium. Embracing the city’s historic architecture and harmoniously integrating contemporary architecture, the new Pasadena Convention Center reinforces the city’s heritage while transforming it into a 21st century international destination. The Rose City sought a convention center that was exemplary in design, technology, and environmental responsibility.

Size 185,000 s.f.

The project includes renovation of the exterior and interior of the existing center, the addition of a new exhibit hall and ballroom building, and a grand 22,000-square-foot civic plaza that enhances views and unifies the complex with pedestrian streets connecting to and from the center. The expansion nearly triples the convention center’s original meeting and event space. The 55,000-square-foot exhibit hall can be divided into two rooms, or combined with the adjacent grand ballroom for an 88,000-square-foot space.

Scope Expansion and Renovation

The Convention Center is designed to host multiple events simultaneously with state-of-the-art technology and modern amenities, and an emphasis on room flexibility, efficient circulation and user convenience. The user-friendly design creates clear and direct circulation routes for user wayfinding and building services.

Construction Cost $128,900,000 Date of Completion 2009

Specific role and services provided: Design Architect and Architect of Record Services | Master Planning, Architecture, Interior Design, FF&E

The facility is supported by an 8,500-square-foot kitchen, seven loading docks and an 800-car parking garage. Within the lively urban site, meeting and event space at grade was increased, while the kitchen and loading docks were located conveniently out of sight.

“Honoring Pasadena’s heritage and charm, Fentress Architects created a grand design for the world-class convention center we envisioned. They skillfully captured Pasadena’s sense of place, from the overall design to intricate details. Pasadena now has the flexibility, technology and elegance to compete nationally as a first-class convention center. We couldn’t be more pleased.”

- Michael Ross CEO, Pasadena Center Operating Company

The glamorous daylit lobbies extend a warm welcome to convention attendees and Pasadena residents.

Honoring the hospitality of Pasadena’s architectural heritage, Fentress Architects created an intimate space, quite unlike lobbies of other convention centers. Interior colors and themes complement the exterior, while creating a sophisticated elegance.

II | 39

The Pasadena Convention Center implemented a host of green initiatives leading to its LEED Gold Certification. The expanded center met its goals in water use, electricity, recycling, and traffic reduction. With water-conserving restrooms, lowwater landscaping, and storm water runoff collection for irrigation, overall water consumption has been reduced significantly. The expanded facility features highefficiency lighting and public transportation.

The new center successfully balances deference to its architectural context, complementing the historic auditorium’s architecture, while expressing its own elegant distinction. The center reinforces the city’s heritage while announcing itself as an exemplary facility capable of competing with any other top-tier convention destination.

Las Vegas Convention Center | South Hall Expansion Las Vegas, Nevada The Las Vegas Convention Center is undergoing a $373 million expansion that is intended to ease the Center’s needs for additional meeting space and improve the building’s overall design. The 500,000-square-foot expansion, done in conjunction with the HNTB Architects, includes 145,000 square feet of dedicated meeting space and a ballroom of about 100,000 square feet.

Size 500,000 s.f.

The project also includes a lobby along the length of the South Hall, a grand concourse to tie together the Center’s three halls, a redesigned signature front facade, and an enclosed pedestrian connector from the adjacent Las Vegas Monorail station.

Date of Completion Project cancelled after design was completed

Concourses, exhibit halls and meeting rooms are clustered together and assigned a color and a letter. These colors are deployed throughout the finish palette to zone the building and reinforce passive wayfinding. These colors also serve as accents to the primarily neutral color palette. The walls, ceilings and floors are varied in shape, modulation, articulation, surface and color.

There are three major classifications of finish types for the convention center, and a required common denominator among all of them is durability and maintainability. The areas accessible to event attendees must appropriately reinforce the industry standards for commonly held expectations in the industry regarding quality service delivery, business climate and hospitality.

McCarran International Airport | Terminal 3 Las Vegas, Nevada PGALwas the prime consultant and lead architect for the new 1,800,000 square foot international terminal building. The three-level terminal has 14 new aircraft gates, including seven international swing gates. PGAL also provided terminal facilities for an existing 30-gate concourse that is linked by an ATS people mover system and a new central plant that serves these new facilities.

Size 1,800,000 s.f.

Designed to accommodate a variety of aircrafts, including wide bodies, the international gates serve as “swing gates,” providing additional domestic gate capacity as needed. The Federal Inspection Services (FIS) facilities are designed to process arriving international passengers at a rate of 1,600-passengers-per-hour. The FIS design incorporates elements from the US Customs and Border Protection’s “Model Ports of Entry” program, as well as “Global Entry” expedited processing.

Date of Completion January 2012

The design features multiple security screening checkpoints and baggage claim devices that serve both international and domestic operations. The terminal facilities serve 44 gates and include ticketing, security screening checkpoints, outbound baggage operations with in-line EDS screening, inbound baggage and baggage claim facilities, concessions (including retail, food and beverage, and gaming), and airline support. The terminal is supported by a new roadway system and parking structure. .

Demonstrated Success:

Project Relevance:

Maintain Airport operations and meet aggressive schedule: Work was phased to minimize impact on airport operations. Roads, garage, and related facilities were completed first – a full year ahead of schedule. Early site work, foundations and structural steel packages enabled these activities to begin ahead of schedule.

• Successful large complex urban development

Keep a $2 billion project on budget: The project was delivered below budget due to PGAL’s “value enhancement” approach, accurate cost estimating, and policy of defining and confirming all systems, specifications, estimates, and obtaining written signoff from all stakeholders by 30 percent of overall design, thus virtually eliminating “scope creep” and cost overruns.

• Simultaneous coordination with multiple project stakeholders • Budget conscious terminal design • Connection to existing facilities • Cutting edge technology • Food-beverage/retail/ advertising opportunities that enhance concession revenue • Pedestrian bridges

He pioneered the firm’s “contextual regionalism” philosophy. Michael’s desert projects were inspired by discovery walks where he collected local stone and native resources to define the colors, textures and materials that would root the buildings in their place.

Michael has the inventive and dynamic ability to bring the design problems of large, complex projects down to a reachable human scale. Part of this process involves simplifying the project plan to allow for intuitive circulation which makes navigation easier for people in large scale convention centers.

Proposed Project Role Project Designer

As Project Designer, Michael will develop design concepts and oversee creative development of design through each phase, review the documents, and attend site walks to ensure design intent is realized.

Walter P Moore Structural Engineer, Facade, Building Enclosure

Walter P Moore is an international company of engineers, architects, innovators, and creative people who solve some of the world’s most complex structural and infrastructure challenges. Providing structural, diagnostics, civil, traffic, parking, transportation, enclosure, and construction engineering services, we design solutions that are costand resource-efficient, forward-thinking, and help support and shape communities worldwide. Founded in 1931 and headquartered in Houston, Texas, our 600+ professionals work across 18 U.S. offices and five international locations.

As major and secondary cities around the world strive to compete in the enormous convention and meeting industry, many are developing new, expanded, or renovated convention facilities. Successful convention facilities demand experienced structural engineering to respond to a variety of functional criteria, including exhibit spaces with typical column-free bays of up to 150 feet and floors that readily accommodate heavy loads, ballrooms, and increasingly sophisticated power and utility requirements.

And as the living room of the community, they must be beautiful.

Walter P Moore has supported the design, expansion or renovation of major convention facilities totaling over 15 million square feet. The enclosure of a building – including its facades, roofing and subsystems –influence the aesthetics and life-cycle performance more than any other element. A fine balance of aesthetics, cost efficiency and enclosure performance are critical to a successful project. The ever-increasing complexity of building enclosure architecture, combined with increasing functional performance requirements, limited budgets, and compressed project schedules can challenge even the most skilled design teams to deliver building enclosure systems that perform as intended. This has created a need for highly specialized building enclosure expertise.

FEA Engineers Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing Engineer

Located in Las Vegas, Nevada, FEA Consulting Engineers has been operating since 1989 as a full service engineering firm, specializing in Hospitality, Gaming, Commercial, and Retail space designs. The firm has grown to be one of the largest mechanical and electrical firms in Nevada. Owners, Robert P. Finnegan, PE, and Boyd L. Erickson, CPD, have more than 70 years of combined experience in the mechanical, plumbing, electrical and fire protection fields.

Our staff of engineers, designers, Revit/CADD operators and support staff has extensive experience designing projects varying from $5,000 retrofits to $500 million (ground up) systems.

FEA Consulting Engineers specializes in large projects that require intense attention to coordinate the various requirements of mechanical and electrical systems. FEA’s attention to sound engineering applications, along with a high level of service, provides clients the assurance of a successful project that meets their needs and budget. Our philosophy is to identify and program space requirements and equipment locations early in the project design, knowing that these spaces must be adequate at the preliminary stage, so the building design can progress and further space allotments are not necessary. In addition, our coordination efforts are enhanced by a systematic in-house checking process that reveals, beforehand, many of the discipline coordination issues that occur on large projects.

FEA Consulting Engineers’ involvement in convention space Mechanical, Electrical, and Low Voltage design insures maximum adaptability for the various functions that could be held in the space. Our involvement in the Las Vegas market has exposed us to one of the largest and most diverse convention destinations in the world. Essentially, any and all types of events have been addressed in these facilities.

We feel this experience is invaluable to Owner’s creating versatile convention environments.

Since convention space is used sporadically, and often there is a significant amount of time utilized for setting up the event, a more versatile HVAC system adapting to the various loads of the space is needed. A system designed with this in mind utilizes significantly less energy and insures the ability to adapt the large diversity of space utilization.
